DANTE’S THOUGHTS
All my thoughts… always speak of love
Yet between themselves… such difference
All my thoughts … always laugh at love
One will blind me… with mind and sense
A second thought says… go look above
A third one, hope… yields joy enough
And with the last… come the tears
I scarce know when… only tears
With the tears, I scarce know when
All my thoughts, speak of love
All crave pity, in sore suspense
Tremble with fear… the heart should know
Being unsure… which path to take
I’m wishing to speak… the wish to speak
Know not what to say… what was not said
Losing myself… amorous wandering
Until the peace… for all to make
And to my enemies… I will pray
My Lady Pity… the love she brings
All my thoughts, only speak of love

All The Fools Trust Me
-music+lyrics by Jeff Gallea 1997/2017
You’re all fools, thats the rule
This is what you will see, trust me
This is the sound that makes you relax
With clear blue eyes, its not a surprise
I only see your body, your body not your mind
Dead lies the illusion, you’re occupied
Thats the rule, this is what you’ll see
Trust me, trust me, trust me, trust me…
You look at odd things while smoke sits on your lips
When I look at odd things, my eyes focus on the past
Hide the jewels
Thats the rule, all the fools trust me
Trust me, trust me, trust me, trust me…

We Can Stumble
- music+lyrics by Jeff Gallea 1997/2017
We can stumble
We're no different
Than anyone so blind in love
So blind in lust
Ahhhh, listen for a sound
What do I hear
For untold heights
Depths with no words
No word can reach
Music is the soul
Ahhhh, listen for a sound
What do I hear
We can stumble
We're no different
Than anyone so blind in love
So blind in lust
Ahhhh, listen for a sound
What do I hear
We can stumble
We're no different
Than anyone so blind in love
So blind in lust
So blind in lust

SHIMMERING WHITE LIGHT
-music+lyrics by Jeff Gallea 1985/2009/2016
SHIMMERING WHITE LIGHT
REFLECTS OFF BEADS OF SWEAT
AS WE GATHER HERE
GLANCING AT POWDERED FACES
SHIMMERING WHITE LIGHT
NEW WORDS ARE IN MY MIND
THEN EVERYONE DANCES
WITH NO TRACE OF ROMANCE
NOW THAT YOU HAVE ME
WHAT WILL YOU ASK OF ME?
NOW THAT YOU HAVE ME
PLEASE TELL ME YOUR NAME
SHIMMERING WHITE LIGHT
MEN LOOK WHILE WOMEN DANCE
AS THE LIGHTS GROW DIM
YOUR CURTAIN WILL RISE
SHIMMERING WHITE LIGHT
REFLECTS OFF BEADS OF SWEAT
AS WE GATHER HERE
GLANCING AT POWDERED FACES
SHIMMERING WHITE LIGHTS

"Bela Lugosi's Dead"
White on white translucent black capes
Back on the rack
Bela Lugosi's dead
The bats have left the bell tower
The victims have been bled
Red velvet lines the black box
Bela Lugosi's dead
Bela Lugosi's dead
Undead undead undead
Undead undead undead
The virginal brides file past his tomb
Strewn with time's dead flowers
Bereft in deathly bloom
Alone in a darkened room
The count
Bela Lugosi's dead
Bela Lugosi's dead
Bela Lugosi's dead
Undead undead undead
Undead undead undead
Undead
Oh Bela
Bela's undead
Oh Bela
Bela's undead
Bela's undead
Oh Bela
Bela's undead
Oh Bela
Undead
